Abstract: An ultrasound system is described which can be turned off quickly by an operator command or in response to an interruption of a.c. power to the system. When a.c. power is cut off, the system switches to battery backup while a processor executes an orderly shutdown sequence. The system can completely shut down, or the state of the system can be minimally preserved by battery backup in either volatile or nonvolatile memory so that the system can restart without having to sequence through an entire bootup procedure. This enables the system to remain active even when the ultrasound system is unplugged and being moved.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the activity of the blood clotting factor XIIIa. The aim of the invention is to provide a method for measuring the activity of FXIIIa which is simple to carry out and which is also suitable for use with testing systems that have a high throughput. It was found that activated FXIIIa influences the light transmitting power of fibrin clots. Fibrinogen is caused to clot with a fibrinogen-splitting enzyme. The change in the light transmitting power of the samples according to the concentration of FXIIIa present is registered and is used as a measure of the activity of FXIIIa. The inventive method can be used especially for screening for FXIIIa inhibitors.

Abstract: Pressing of shirts on a shirt-shaped outer inflatable body advantageously takes place with tensioning the shirt in flat form. To achieve a non-round cross-section, in particular, in the trunk section of the outer body, a supporting framework and at least one inner inflatable body are disposed within the outer body, it being possible for the inner body to be supported on the supporting framework and to subject the outer body to pressure from the inside. For such a purpose, the inner inflatable bodies are inflated, in particular, by a higher pressure than the outer inflatable body. It is, thus, possible for the trunk region to be tensioned laterally outward and for the shirt to be pressed in an advantageously flat form. Using the inner bodies avoids raised edges or sharp points in the enclosure of the outer inflatable body. As a result, the shirts can be pressed without creases.

Abstract: A pneumatic-hydraulic hybrid pneumatic brake booster is improved. Additional hydraulic boosting ( 19, 20 ) provided by a hydraulic circuit is provided beyond a saturation point (Psat) in the operation of the pneumatic circuit. Hysteresis-induced instabilities in the pneumatic part of the booster are taken into consideration ( 50 ). A choice is made to compensate (A) for the shortfall in operation of the pneumatic circuit using the hydraulic circuit. In one example, this correction is afforded via a microprocessor which imposes a corrected process signal. Using this signal, pressure shifts in the pneumatic system are neutralized.

Abstract: Disclosed is a combustion engine. The engine includes a combustion chamber ( 40 ), which is delimited at one end by a head ( 41 ) and delimited at a second end by a piston ( 1 ). The piston is arranged on a connecting rod ( 3 ) via a piston pin ( 2 ). A body ( 1;8;52 ) with a delimiting surface ( 8 A) is movable in relation to the piston pin ( 2 ) and facilitates a variable volume in the combustion chamber ( 40 ). A compression spring ( 10 ), acts on the surface ( 8 A) with a spring force in the direction of the combustion chamber ( 40 ). The engine further includes a pressure chamber ( 11 ) that can be supplied with hydraulic oil from a pressure source via a feed duct ( 12,13 ), which pressure chamber ( 11 ) is able to cause hydraulic movement of the moveable delimiting surface ( 8 A) with the aim of being able to adjust the size of the combustion chamber depending on the combustion pressure. The pressure chamber ( 11 ) communicates with an inlet duct ( 13 ) that facilitates replenishment of the hydraulic oil from the pressure source to the pressure chamber ( 11 ) when the pressure (P 2 ) in the pressure chamber ( 11 ) falls below the pressure (P 1 ) in the feed duct ( 13 ).

Abstract: The subject invention comprises a method for diagnosing a clinical event that occurs in a patient's tissue by conducting diagnostic tests on a patient sample obtained from a substance stream in contact with affected tissue. One of the diagnostic tests is an assay for a molecule released from the tissue during the clinical event, and another diagnostic test is an assay for a molecule that is present in the stream and is modified by the clinical event. The results of the assays are combined in an algorithm to provide a positive or negative diagnosis of the clinical event. In one embodiment, the clinical event is a myocardial infarction, the sample is blood or a component thereof, the molecule released from the affected tissue is a necrotic marker (e.g., troponin), and the modified molecule in the blood component is ischemia modified albumin. In another embodiment, the clinical event is an ischemic stroke, the sample is blood or a component thereof, the molecule released from the affected tissue is a necrotic marker (e.g., S1OOB), and the modified molecule in the blood component is ischemia modified albumin.

Abstract: An end seal (100) for use in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus uses an array (150) of ridges (or grooves) (152) to urge toner inwardly so as to help prevent toner escape. The end seal works in conjunction with a cleaning blade (90). The end seal includes a blade pocket (130) for mating with the end portions of the cleaning blade and a middle portion (140) having an array of ridges thereon. The ridges thereon are angled inward to urge any toner trapped therebetween inward away from the end seals, where the toner can be directed to a waste reservoir in a normal fashion. This 'snowplowing' action of the ridges helps prevent outward migration of toner, thereby minimizing toner escape. The end seal may be composed of two or more layers (110, 180) of differing materials. There may be an end seal at  each end of the cleaner blade.

Abstract: The reliable sealing of a gap ( 10 ), between a roller front face ( 7 ) and a side seal ( 3 ) on a roller-strip-casting machine is achieved by the generation of an electrical eddy field in the region of the gap ( 10 ), such as to produce a local gradient field ( 13 ). The eddy currents generated in the metal melt for casting prevent the ingress of the metal into the gap ( 10 ) or eject the metal from the gap ( 10 ). The risk of escape of liquid metal is essentially eliminated and the formation of ridges on the narrow edge of the metal strip avoided.
